Hi I am new to this whole forum thing but I was just hoping I could find somewhere where I could vent/share my experiences and talk about things with people who understand and have gone through the same thing so forgive me if I am not in the right place
I have been with my husband for 10 years and married for 2 we are what you call highschool sweethearts. We have been TTC for over a year now. I have been to my gyno and had multiple test done to make sure that my body is healthy and that everything is working as it should and it all checked out fine. I was on the depo shot for 4 years before we decided that we were ready to start a family so in turn it took a while for my hormones to get back to normal after that. I have been charting my BBT and actually dont find it helpful at all because I'm not seeing a recurring pattern but I still continue to do it because my gyno suggested it. We had been and are still doing everything my doctor has suggested BBT charting, sex every other or every third day and to my dismay I found out in April I was pregnant....I new something was up because I hadnt had a period since February 15th and had been testing almost every week but nothing was happening so I just assumed my periods had gone irregular again. We were so elated when we found out we were pregnant in fact at first my husband didnt believe me he made me take 4 test and schedule a doctors appointment for the following day which now I am really glad he made me do it. It was a friday that I had my appointment and I went in and they did a pregnancy test and said it came back faintly positive which meant they werent really sure if I was pregnant or not so she decided to do an internal ultra sound. When they did the ultra sound it showed nothing except for thick lining. She said that it either meant I was way early or I was miscarrying I had to wait all weekend and come back on monday for another ultra sound. Unfortunately on sunday I started to bleed. I was devastated it felt like my heart had been ripped out. I had what they call a blighted ovum and the doctor told me that statistically I should have 4 more healthy babies before I have another miscarriage and that they wouldnt do any further test until I have had two more miscarriages which is definitely not what I wanted to hear because I dont want to have to go through this again. So with all that being said my husband and I are back on the path and TTC again hopefully this time around will be a success. I was just wondering how many people are in the same boat as I am and how long did it take you to conceive after your miscarriage? I pray for you all that you will be blessed with that wonderful miracle as I am praying for myself. Sorry for my saga but sometimes you just need to talk about things and I've shared all this with my husband many times. I know in my case sometimes I just need some encouraging words...So baby dust to you all God Bless
